What sauce goes well with pan fried prawn??

Re: What sauce goes well with pan fried prawn??

There are loads of sauces that go well with fried prawns.You could try adding just a little coconut milk; or fresh cream with a touch of tomato paste and a light cheese (flashed under the grill), but surely the very best is just heating the pan with butter and a light olive oil, lemon juice, dill and black pepper and blast them for a few seconds only, turning once. That way you retain the full flavour of the sea and they are absolutely deliceous. Why not chuck a few scallops in first for good measure? I'm salivating just at the mere thought! Good luck

I love them best fried in olive oil with a little garlic. And then just a little lemon juice to sprinkle on.But I also agree with sadie about the sweet chili sauce. It's good on almost anything, too.Once I had them with lemon butter to dip them in. That was also very good.

Sweet Chilli ....... I fry the big raw king prawns in a little garlic and then just before I serve them I chuck over half a bottle of sweet chilli sauce.Serve with Rocket, watercress and some cucumber chunks to take the heat off your tongue.

Method:-In a heavy based stainless pot place vinegar, sugar, soy, and water and bring to the boil. -Add shallots and ginger. -Cook for 5-10 minutes on low heat. -Add lime juice and then arrowroot mixture a little at a time while stirring. Keep warm.-Rinse rice under running cold water till clear. Add to water in a heavy based saucepan. -Bring to the boil and cover with a tight fitting lid. -Turn heat down to low and cook for 12 minutes.-Remove from heat and rest with lid on for 10 minutes.-Remove lid and fluff with a roasting fork or chopsticks.-In a Teflon pan on medium heat, add 20 ml vegetable oil, then prawn cutlets, cooking for 1 1/2 minutes either side. Remove from pan.-Divide rice evenly among four bowls place prawns in bowls. -Spoon sauce around and scatter with chili slices and coriander.

Sauce Rouille: Take 3 cloves peeled garlic, slice this fine and put it together with the mash potato the red capsicum (Cut in big pieces), sliced chilli, the Vegetable Stock and the Egg yolk in a blender and mix it that it become a fine mousse.Than add slowly 150 ml Olive oil and season with pepper, salt and cayenne pepper. Then put it in a bowl and refrigerate.

I had forgotten, but my godmother has a wonderfully quick recipe for shrimps or salmon filet etc :

Basically she fries the fish/prawns/whatever and then adds some cointreau and a hint of cream. Seasons with salt and pepper and that's it. (The alcohol and the cream reduce really quickly as you won't be adding lots and lots).
